COS

At the southeastern tip of Sicily, Azienda Agricola COS was founded in 1980 by Giambattista Cilia, Cirino Strano, and Giusto Occhipinti. Inspired by the African-like landscape and ancient traditions, they craft wines that reflect their ancestral lands. With olive, carob, and almond trees surrounding their vineyards, COS embraces natural rhythms and artisanal methods. Each bottle tells a story—of place, passion, and a 3,000-year-old heritage—expressed with humility and a deep respect for the earth.

Sicily

Sicily, Italy’s largest island, is renowned for its diverse and high-quality wines, benefiting from a range of climates and soils. The region is particularly famous for its rich reds, notably from the Nero d’Avola grape, which produces full-bodied wines with deep fruit flavours, spice, and robust structure. It is also celebrated for its elegant Etna wines, made from Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio, which showcase the volcanic terroir with complex, mineral-driven profiles. On the white side, Grillo and Carricante offer crisp, aromatic wines with citrus and floral notes. Combining ancient winemaking traditions with modern techniques, Sicily provides a captivating and varied wine experience.
